Datang first village

The exam in the morning was "Chinese".

It can be said that the guys from Datang have shown the ultimate in Chinese. The sentence of learning and practicing is just a seemingly simple beginning, followed by couplets, word changes, poems, and multiple explanations for one word. More solutions and so on.At the end, there is another question, which is Li Yuanxing's Xingnong said.

Li Yuanxing said according to the Bai language Wen Xingnong who was moved by later generations.

This would have to be rewritten in quaint script, and the requirement must be archival.

To be honest, Li Yuanxing didn't even know which official document format the archived document belonged to, at least he had never seen it.

The word-changing question can be understood as Han Yu's "deliberation".A word with multiple explanations is really the essence of ancient Chinese, and it is impossible to guess without a foundation.

Li Yuanxing asked himself, if he was allowed to take such an exam, he might not even be able to pass the county level. Of course, if he belonged to the Liaodong exam area, he might still have a chance.

In one morning, I took the "Chinese" test.

One morning, Li Yuanxing felt his back was wet, not hot, but cold sweat.

I really underestimate Chinese, it is broad and profound, and there is a word 'and'.Listening to the discussions of these examiners, they used more than ten usages, exceeding four ways of understanding.Li Yuanxing just sat and listened, thinking it was all about learning.

After a long morning, Li Yuanxing and the examiners had a working meal.

The volume is sealed, and the name and test number are kept confidential. In fact, there is also a chance of cheating. Many candidates' fonts have very unique characteristics.However, the Royal Academy uses a three-person review method, and each batch of papers is randomly selected from serving officials with relevant qualifications to review the papers.

In the afternoon, take the exam on "Elementary Mathematical Sciences" and "The Classic of Medicine"

Among the six colleges, it can be said that in addition to the medical school, even the agricultural college has to take mathematics.Someone once raised an opinion, what's the use of math in military science, Li Jing slapped him with a big slap. If you don't know math, you know that you can eat for a few days with military rations, and you know how many miles you can run in as many days as you have.

When the exam started in the afternoon, someone took out the "Chinese" exam paper from the morning and asked Li Yuanxing to comment.

Li Yuanxing made an excuse that he was not qualified to mark the examination papers, so he still looked at the new examination papers, just for fun.

Arithmetic is mathematics.

According to rumors in the Tang Dynasty, Princess Mingyue may rank first in the Tang Dynasty in terms of arithmetic skills, and His Royal Highness King Qin is weaker, but no one can reach one-tenth of His Highness King Qin.

Li Yuanxing is actually full of confidence.

On the first page, Li Yuanxing lit a cigarette slowly. It was just some simple formula-like questions, mainly to see the candidates' memory and understanding of the formulas.

Li Yuanxing can figure out these formulas without any difficulty. After all, the modern 12-year mathematics education is not taught for nothing.

The second page... Li Yuanxing almost swallowed the cigarette in his mouth.

What's this?Li Yuanxing was about to put his eyes on the scroll, and there were three circles, seven, maybe eight squares drawn on the scroll, and there were already countless triangles.Li Yuanxing thought that to distinguish those weird polygons, he needed good eyesight.

One question requires 27 answers.

Some of them ask for angles, some ask for the length of a certain side, and some ask for the area.

"Actually, this calculation is very simple. As long as you don't be misled by those redundant graphics, it is still easy to do. After all, all the answers have formulas that can be applied, and everyone will be given an abacus." The examiner said with a relaxed face.

Immediately someone asked: "I'm afraid this question will be a waste of time!"

Crack, crack, crack, just listening to the examiner's calculations, and then recorded it on paper, and someone showed the time.The stopwatch sent out, half an hour of modern time, done.

"It is estimated that there may be a mistake, and there is a line that I missed!"

For half an hour, Li Yuanxing told himself that he must have been away from school for too long and not focused enough.

Letting out a long breath, Li Yuanxing turned to the third page of "Mathematics", and just glanced at it, and Li Yuanxing was about to go crazy. On a densely packed piece of paper, there were nine lines in the middle, dividing the volume into ten parts.Then there are at least forty numbers on each copy, as short as five digits, and as long as seventeen or eight digits.

More than 400 numbers, addition.

In modern times, this level of difficulty is at least level six.

God!When Li Yuanxing turned the fourth page, his hands were trembling.He could no longer imagine what the title of the fourth page would be.

On the top of the fourth page, it says that the military academy must answer, but other colleges do not.

After carefully reading the questions, Li Yuan was overwhelmed. He believed that he would definitely not be able to answer the questions. In the modern age, few top high school students could answer them.

There are two questions, one is the ballistic drop point of the artillery, and the other is the destructive power of the bed crossbow to the armor.

This fucking includes the knowledge of physics, acceleration of gravity, and radians, and you must understand functions.The other one, the angle of the bed crossbow, etc., is much more difficult than the first question.

Li Yuanxing didn't want to read any more, he was afraid that he would be stimulated.

If this thing is handed over to a computer, there is a database in his computer, and he only needs to input the most basic ones, and he can easily calculate it.But Li Yuanxing was really powerless to do the calculations with his hands and pens.

The day's exam was finally over, Li Yuanxing found an excuse and walked outside.He wanted to see the reaction of these students after the exam, and he wanted to know how many people almost cried after the modern exam.

The reality once again cruelly stimulated Li Yuanxing.

At least Li Yuanxing looked around and saw how many people were laughing and discussing today's exam questions excitedly.

Liu Zhenghui stood beside Li Yuanxing: "His Royal Highness, look at the students' reactions, next year's exams will be more difficult. Think about how many people walked out of the exam room crying during the imperial examinations in the Sui Dynasty. They can still laugh. For the dereliction of duty of the subordinates, next year we must let them know that the door of the Royal Academy of Tang Dynasty is not so easy to enter."

Li Yuanxing coughed lightly: "Actually, it's not easy for students."

"Your Highness is kind, but the gate of the Royal Academy of the Tang Dynasty is the Dragon Gate. If you jump over it, you will turn into a dragon. Naturally, it can't be so easy. After all, tens of thousands of students apply for the exam every year in the Great Tang Dynasty. Those who enter the Royal Academy of the Tang Dynasty must You are the darling of heaven, you must have extraordinary talents!"

OK, you can.Li Yuanxing said in his heart that you should just fix it, anyway, after this exam, the king will never come again.

That night, when Li Yuanxing returned to Chang'an City, he naturally had to enter the palace to report the situation of the exam.

Unexpectedly, Li Er was doing the geometry problem at his desk, and Eunuch Gao next to him was holding an hourglass and was timing Li Er.

Li Yuanxing didn't dare to disturb, and stood quietly waiting.

"Okay, how long?" Li Er put down his pen and asked loudly.Eunuch Gao hurriedly bowed and said, "My lord, I turned the hourglass 23 times, which is almost 48 minutes on your pocket watch."

Li Er let out a long sigh: "I don't know if it's correct, but I heard it in the examination room. The fastest student only took ten minutes, the ordinary ones didn't take more than half an hour, and the worst ones couldn't do it." Yes, it seems that I can only be compared with the worst ones, I am afraid that I will lose my name in this one and a half hour exam."

"Brother Huang, don't be sad, at least one person must be worse than Brother Huang!"

"Who?" Li Er asked in surprise.

Li Yuanxing pointed to himself: "Of course it is my younger brother. If you give this question to my younger brother for three hours, I am afraid it will be difficult for my younger brother to solve it. So the emperor is naturally smart, at least better than my younger brother!"

Li Er laughed after hearing this, and waved his hand to signal Eunuch Gao and the eunuchs and maids to step back.

When there were no outsiders in the study room, the smile on Li Er's face disappeared instantly: "God Lang, bastard, make fun of me as a brother. Your mathematical model is more accurate than the four-month calculation of the fourth department by one person."

"To be honest, I didn't make the mathematical model, I just use it. I understand everything, but I'm not very proficient in everything. Arithmetic, especially the calculation of ballistics, is already extremely difficult. The geometry problem..." Li Yuanxing smiled wryly and shook his head: "It's not that I can't do it, even if I calm down, I will definitely surpass Brother Huang in terms of time."

"Really?" Li Er didn't believe it.

Li Yuanxing nodded very seriously: "Actually, Brother Huang should be happy. One is that people who are skilled in art and concentrate on a certain thing must reach a certain extreme. Second, there are so many talents in the Tang Dynasty. My brother is not as good as it is, how will the Tang Dynasty develop in the future. Third, the art of immortal work is a professional art, and every professional person has studied it deeply, which is beyond the imagination of the emperor, and the ministers can't even stick to it Up."

Li Er nodded silently.

Li Er knew that what Li Yuanxing said was the truth.

From the situation of Datang in the past year, he also understood that Li Chun is absolutely superior in researching bridges.But except for the bridge, he hardly understands the rest.There are also some second-class craftsmen who are only good at what they are good at.

"Goro, you have so many things to think about, so naturally you can't focus on something."

This is a consolation.

Li Er said again: "Actually, there is something wrong with being a brother. There is no need to do this math problem for a brother. We brothers are looking at the world of the Tang Dynasty, not fighting for some kind of skills."

"Liu Zhenghui said that the questions were too easy, and most of the students came out of the examination room smiling. He will let the candidates come out crying next year." Li Yuanxing said a gossip, which immediately broke the dignified atmosphere.

Li Er smiled and bent over.

"Brother Emperor, I'm here to talk about the students from foreign countries." Li Yuanxing sat on a chair in the study, took out a document from his bag, opened it, and said, "My brother thinks that the students from foreign countries are basically It's too bad, most of them are noble children, although they are interested, they may not be able to keep up with the Tang students in a short period of time! Therefore, the younger brother proposed "

Li Yuanxing put a seal on Li Er's desk: "Brother Huang, I propose to change the year system to the credit system. This is a detailed seal. They can study or leave school halfway, but they need to get the royal seal. The college’s graduation essay must have enough credits!” (To be continued.)
